Life is what we make it.
Any Fins fans in KC or anybody with friends that are KC fans? I'd really like to know why this guy fell off the map.
Look at his stats I've posted below (deleted - did not look right once posted) . Herm abused the kid in 2006 when he had 1789 yards rushing and a 41 receptions (so he can catch too). That was an amazing year.
After 2006, he never started a full 16 game season again. Was he hurt? Was it the off the field crap? Did he now suck?
He averaged 4.4 yards per carry for the Bengals in 2009...the only year he was below 4.0 was last year in Washington and in KC for half the year in 2009. In 2008 he almost had 1,000 yards in only 12 games.
I didn't like the move at first but for a third string guy who runs hard, I am going to love seeing this guy run the rock in the fourth quarter. Although I would have rather had Ronnie as a #3, but for the money/age, I think this could be a good pick up.
Bottom line, since 2003 LJ has played in 84 games, that's 4 games over 5 seasons. At 31, I think he just might have a year or two left in the tank. Also, if you had to choose which back you'd least want to tackle out of Reggie, DT, & LJ - LJ has to be that guy right now.
